Abstract
The internet of things (IoT) allows companies to better understand consumers' needs while improving sales conditions (e.g., easier access to products and information, gain of time for employees and consumers, smart entertaining environments, etc.). However, digitalizing a store is an investment. Therefore, it is necessary for managers to know consumers' expectations and the perceived benefits and risks for both managers and consumers. This chapter studies the academic literature and managers opinions about consumers' attitudes toward the acceptance of smart retail stores. More specifically, the roles of consumer well-being, social image, utility value, human value, privacy concerns, technology trust, health concerns, and different personality traits toward smart retail stores are discussed.
